Campaign ads

Which ones have you found good and/or bad? Personally, I really liked the Kerry ad I saw which was in an empty warehouse while you hear Bush speak. It was subtle, original and used some interesting ways of getting it's point across. On the negative side is the Bush commercial where you hear Kerry speak first and then a male voice says "Oh really?" and goes on. The guy reminds me too much of the voice used in crime shows heh and just sounds all wrong to me!

Not even going to mention the Swiftboat Vet ads heh..

I think bashing ads are childish as hell. Anyone who can stay above them and just advertise their policies or ideals is considerable in my book. Btw, what the FUCK is with that bush ad, "i can't imagine the agony of deciding which child to pick up after 9/11"...................... his stupidity astounds me, how does that have ANYTHING to do with being the president....

Yeah I reacted to that one as well. Quite distasteful imho.

The Bush bash ad of Kerry about reforming our Intelligence agencies is pretty good showing Kerry's lack of attendance and zero attendance after 911.

As far as bash ads go, that is an effective one. It's not particulary dirty but gets a point across.
